Action

The film takes Turner along with his family, which he had left thirty years before. This is today except him from his father Henry, his son Jason and his seven year old son Zach. Henry then, is the great-grandfather of Zach.

After a car accident thirty years before, in which Jason's mother had come to death, and Jason himself has suffered apparently permanent injury, Turner had left his family and left his son to the care of his grandfather. A real contact did not exist. While the relationship between the remaining family members - all men - appears as a very loving and caring, meets at least the Jason unexpectedly emerging, unknown to him father with marked reluctance. Only through the funeral and mourning ceremony after the death of Henry, involved with the Jason Turner and more forced than voluntary, find the three who remained now to each other emotionally.

The theme of death plays a special role in this film, so far reflects Henry before his own death at length about his coming of an end and a worthy setting. In a "deleted scene" he has his great-grandson expressly point out that the end is nothing from which one must be afraid in this family. Rather, am the end to the natural course of things to do so.
